Lillian's 9th Birthday

A few weeks ago when Lillian and I were working on making her birthday invitations, Robin's Dad was in town and took some photos of she and I while we were working. Robin forwarded me some of his photos earlier today. Over lunch I set a slide show of those photos to music.

Turned out pretty well!

Lillian's Birthday Invitations

Over the weekend, Lillian wanted to make invitations to her 9th birthday slumber party. We looked at several options and she decided she wanted to make a pretty elaborate interactive "sleeping bag card." Over the next three days she probably spent 6-8 hours drawing, tracing, inking, cutting, folding, and gluing. I helped her out with the little typography inset with the details of the party. I think they turned out pretty well.
